FDA Trying to Tarnish a Whistleblower?

Share this

After challenging Food and Drug Administration policies that he claims leave the public "virtually defenseless" against questionable drugs, FDA drug safety official Dr. David Graham contacted the Government Accountability Project, a non-profit organization that protects whistleblowers. Shortly afterwards, anonymous callers to GAP charged Dr. Graham with "scientific misconduct" and being a "bully." After further research, GAP concluded that "the callers were trying to smear [Graham]." In addition, GAP's legal director said he's "certain [the anonymous callers] were supervisors at the FDA because of the details of the arguments they made and the phone numbers from which they called."
